If you set your clock back an hour last night, you are already one hour late
and a week early.
Daylight saving time doesn't end this year until November 4.
Among the many questionable provisions Congress included in the Energy
Policy Act of 2005 was that extended daylight saving time four weeks under
the dubious assumption that it would save energy.
It now starts the second Sunday in March and ends the first Sunday in
November, instead of the last Sunday in October.
But cheer up, you can now conserve energy next Sunday by spending an extra
hour in bed.

it's stupid, makes man go against nature and physics.
If we all woke up the same time year after year we would all be happier and
healthier. Our bodys are designed to follow the changes made by the sun, the
largest body in our world. Instead we follow something that changes twice a
year.
